Hello again everybody at debian-custom! As I proceed with the installation, new questions arises... ;-) Now I want to copy some files from the installation CD (already included on the simple-cdd directory) to the installed system, and execute a script to unpack this files on the new user account (also already created on the installation process). What I am doing is this:
ROOT_DIR="/cdrom/simple-cdd" tar xvfz $ROOT_DIR/program-1.23.tar.gz cd program-1.23; perl Makefile.PL;make;make install su - user -c "tar xvf $ROOT_DIR/file.tar" su - user -c "perl ~/new_dir/script.pl`` The problem is ROOT_DIR; I don`t know when the installer is going to call this script, so I dont know what is mounted where and what is not. Is my way correct? Or what is the correct way to do it? Also, I want, for example, to add a sudoer (the user that I created) on the new system. Do I have to copy a sudoers file to the system after the installation that I previously created, or there is a ``debian-way`` to do it? Thank you very much!

Hello again... 1) I`m getting the syslog - but as I am testing this in kvm virtual machine, I am learning how to copy a file from there... 2) When the packages names are included in the default.packages, the packages are installed in the ``Installing basic system`` part. If they are selected with the tasksel in the preseed, they are installed in the ``adding packages`` part. Both ways, the packages are installed. 3) The path worked right! The files are there. I will try with multiple files. Is there a way to include directories? 4) The Splash worked right also! Thank you. Vagrant, very thank you, and thank everybody on the list...
